Supporting Animal Rescue

Burlington Humane Society

The Burlington Humane Society is Ontario’s leading no-kill shelter. We provide food, shelter and medical attention to stray, abandoned and unwanted dogs and cats in Burlington and surrounding area. We then find forever homes for all our animals. We operate solely on donations and the kindness of the community as we do not receive any government funding. With a dedicated group of over 400 volunteers, we care for and adopt out over 600 animals each year. We also provide education opportunities through our Burlington Humane Kids Club and our podcast “Burlington Humane”. To find out more about Burlington Humane Society, we are on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, or visit our website at www.burlingtonhumane.ca.

Standard Poodles in Need

Standard Poodles In Need, Rescue & Re-home (SPIN) is a Canadian non-profit, foster-based organization primarily concerned with the welfare of homeless or unwanted standard poodles but also with the welfare of toy poodles, mini-poodles and poodle mixes.

Homeward Bound Rescue

Homewardbound Rescue is a small scale dog rescue group dedicated to rescuing dogs in need. We love the Flat Faced Dogs! This comprises of Bulldogs, Pugs, Boxers, Mastiffs, Bostons and many others. We also take in other breeds when there's a need to help other rescue organizations when they are full.

All dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated/health checked and micro chipped before adoption.

Our dogs are more often than not are owner surrenders, puppy mills and local shelters.

Team Dog Rescue

TEAM Dog Rescue is a grassroots, foster-based, Canadian registered charity dedicated to helping all breeds of homeless dogs in our local communities find their forever homes.

From a shared vision of caring and concern for all, TEAM emerged in 2012 in response to a growing need for support from local shelters. Since our inception, over 750 homeless, medical and abused dogs have been welcomed into our rescue, and are now thriving in loving, forever homes.

TEAM Dog Rescue provides medical care, behavioural assessments, ongoing training and a safe haven for our dogs as we work diligently to find them their ideal ‘furever’ homes. What makes us unique? Our focus is on rescuing dogs locally first: from overcrowded and high-kill shelters in Ontario and Quebec, and in partnership with the IFAW Northern Dog Project. TEAM is run exclusively by volunteers, located throughout the Greater Toronto Area and surrounding areas.

Speaking of Dogs Rescue

Speaking of Dogs Rescue Program (SODR) is a registered charity run solely by volunteers. SODR is an all-breed rescue with a focus on senior dogs that is dedicated to assisting dogs from shelters and, when space permits, helping dogs who are surrendered by their owner. Our dogs are lovingly cared for in foster homes until we find well-matched forever homes. All dogs entering our rescue are spayed or neutered and have all their medical needs attended to (e.g. heartworm test, bloodwork, vaccines, microchipped, dewormed and often our older friends need dentals). Our adoption process entails a written application, a telephone interview, reference and veterinary checks and an in-home visit. We are committed to placing our dogs in homes that are responsible, caring and compassionate. We actively fundraise in an effort to help cover rescue related costs such as medical care, grooming, boarding, food and supplies (such as microchips, collars, harnesses and leashes). We are always in search of new foster homes where a dog can be cared for and loved until a permanent home is found. Adopt one of our dogs today!

Helping Homeless Pets

Helping Homeless Pets is an organization dedicated to assisting homeless animals by directly supporting legitimate and ethical pet rescue organizations. Each of our members has undergone a screening process, and has agreed to abide by our Code of Ethics.
